Additionally, monogram towels add an elegant look to your bathroom. Today's last embroidery tutorial for this month has to do with monogram towels and sequins. You can use one color or many colors to embroider your towels. Then, decide if you are going to embroider your family's last name or your first name. Here is the tutorial for making this monogram hand towel. 

Materials: 

Embroidery floss/thread

Embroidery needle

Sequins

Regular thread 

Regular needle

Scissors

Letter Stencil (optional)

Stencil with geometric shapes

Fabric pen/marker

First, use a clean hand towel and use a stencil to trace the square onto the center of the towel.  Next, use a stencil and a fabric pen to trace the letter onto the center of the square. In this example, I used the first letter of my name. Second, insert embroidery thread into the embroidery needle. You can begin embroidering the square or the letter onto the towel. 

Third, begin embroidering. I started by embroidering the letter with two different pink threads. After that, I embroidered the inside of the letter with blue thread.  Fourth, trim the leftover thread from the back of the hand towel. Then, I embroidered the square with lime green and aqua thread. 

After that begin sewing the sequins. Fifth, sew one sequin on each side of the towel. Then, continue sewing the sequins individually and spaced them apart. Trim the leftover threads with scissors on the back of the hand towel. Now, you can gift the hand towel or use it in your bathroom. Happy Embroidering!
